About Laquita

One of the reason why I became a CNA my mother was briefly placed into a nursing home in Ohio and I was not pleased with the services.The staff was very rude and not compassionate of neither to my mother or myself I immediately remove her from the facility and brought her home with me and I continued to give her the home care she deserved until she passed away I believe that,that's why I'm so compassionate to other in a desperate time of need.My personal achievements that I am very proud of then I am able to comfort and support not only the resident but the family also at my current employment I have been recognized as an awesome outstanding nurse assistant and their monthly newsletter.when I go into work everyday it is not just work for me I take my career very personal I gained the friendship and loyalty to my residence and family I am a very compassionate person my job can be very stressful some days but I walk in there with a positive attitude every day with a smile on my face and greet each resident by their first name or nickname whatever they prefer these People are not just my residents they are my friends and family that's how I treat them with all respect and love.
